Hearing this, Su Shen just smiled and said, "There are still many things worth learning from Ding laoshi."
As their eyes met, Ding Yan just glanced at her peculiarly and said nothing before taking her script and leaving.
This was a scene where the female lead followed after the male lead, who often went to the supporting female lead, thinking that he liked her. She didn't believe that the male lead would fall in love with a dancer.
Getting ready to film, Su Shen was already sitting in the old-fashioned dressing room that the production crew had built. In the previous scene, the male lead had just left, and the female lead came to see her out of curiosity but was ridiculed and mocked by the female supporting lead.
"Ok, all departments ready, action!"
As the director's words fell, the camera immediately panned over. Sitting in front of the vanity, Su Shen smoked slowly. The woman in the mirror looked alluring and seductive. Just at this moment, a timid figure suddenly appeared behind her.
"You... you're the woman that Hu dage* likes?" The girl wearing a student uniform from the Republic of China era stared at the captivating woman in the mirror.
dage – literal translation is "Big Brother", a term to also address a male who is a few years older than you
Su Shen didn't turn around and only glanced at her from the corner of her eye before saying apathetically, "What? Does this miss also want to come sing at our Bailemen*?"
Bailemen – the name of an old-style ballroom or singing hall. It was a type of entertainment venue in China in the 1920s and 1930s. It typically offered music, singing, dancing, drinks, and other services, and was one of the main entertainment venues of that era.
"You!" The girl's eyes widened, and a trace of indignation appeared on her face before she boldly and righteously shouted toward her, "You're not suitable for Hu ge!"
At this, the camera focused on Su Shen's face. She arched a brow before smiling slightly. Suddenly, she stood up and walked unhurriedly toward Ding Yan while holding a cigarette between her fingers. Looking at her from left to right and top to bottom, she sneered just as the other party felt uneasy. "I'm not suitable? Are you?"
As if pierced by her contemptuous gaze, Ding Yan glanced at Su Shen before continuing with clenched teeth, "In any case, I hope you stop bothering Hu dage!"
"Bother?" Su Shen seemed amused by the word, and her red nails slowly slid down Ding Yan's powdered face, all the way down to her bulging chest, before stopping. "People in our line of work never bother our customers."
Leaning over, she blew a smoke ring in front of her face as her red lips slightly parted. "Only the customers bother us."
As their eyes met, Ding Yan was momentarily dazed as she looked at the exquisite and enchanting face in front of her. Just as she was about to speak, the director shouted "cut".
Seeing the other staff looking at her meaningfully, Ding Yan took a deep breath before apologizing to the director. "I'm sorry. Let's do it again."
One's aura was directly proportional to experience. Hence, many young actors tended to be excessive when acting opposite veteran actors, lacking the naturalness and composure of the veterans. However, in the first scene between Su Shen and Ding Yan, it made people immersed in the performance. Those who watched the video online would naturally know that the two of them didn't get along. However, Su Shen's aura wasn't lacking because of her age. Contrarily, she appeared quite dominant because of her role. It was hard to imagine that her acting was once so terrible.
